Setting up new VM
by 03ce007＠gmail.com
I have self-hosted-engine (4.2) running on centos (7.4), the engine is running fine so I am trying to deploy a test vm to check ssh connectivity.
however, the vm-infra role runs without any issues and I can see the new VM is in "up" state but it does not have any IP assigned eventhough I have defined it in the cloud_init dict. What I have noticed is that the reported_devices array comes out empty and hence the "Wait for VMs IP" task within create_vm.yml is keep getting skipped.

I think this is the very last stage I am once the ssh connection works, I will be able to use with install yum repo, etc.

Unable to login after upgrade
by Michael Watters
I recently upgraded one of our ovirt engines from 4.1 to the 4.2.3
release and the admin account is no longer able to login. After
entering the user name and password I receive a message that states "The
user admin@internal is not authorized to perform login".
Is there a way to resolve this? Resetting the password did not work.

CephFS
by Markus Stockhausen
Hi there,
coming from Gluster (standalone, mounted on nodes via fuse)
and NFS storage domains we want to give Ceph a try. If I
understand it right it should be possible to mount it in 3 ways.
1. via Cinder
2. via NFS (ganesha)
3. via CephFS (Posix)
We do not need highest performance and want to keep things
simple on the OVirt side (like NFS). From management/integration
perspective CephFS seems to be the way to go.
Any thoughts I missed that could favour the other setups?
Best regards.

Re: Simple API call to start VM
by Kirin van der Veer
Many thanks to:
gsswzt, Luca, Andrej, Fred, Karli, Ondra and Bohdan for their replies.
A number of people mentioned the need to specify a CA cert, but curl was
able to find my organizations CA locally - so that was not an issue.
Correcting my url to include ovirt-engine in the path and my username to
admin@internal as suggested by Andrej as per below:
curl --user "admin@internal:SECRETPASSWORD" --request POST --header
"Content-Type: application/xml" --header "Accept: application/xml" --data
'</action>'
https://ovirt-engine.localnet:443/ovirt-engine/api/vms/69c47a91-bbv1-4eda...
Got me a new error message:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<fault>
<detail>For correct usage, see:
https://ovirt-engine.localnet/ovirt-engine/apidoc#services/vm/methods/start

I followed the URL, but it just seemed to repeat the information already
available at

Here is the relevant section of engine.log on ovirt-engine.localnet:

Later I thought that perhaps the problem was that I need to use the VM Name
instead of it's UUID, since all of the examples in the official docs use
something like "123" or "007". However when I changed the curl request to
the below:
curl --user "admin@internal:SECRETPASSWORD" --request POST --header
"Content-Type: application/xml" --header "Accept: application/xml" --data
'</action>'
https://ovirt-engine.localnet:443/ovirt-engine/api/vms/name_of_my_vm/start
I got no feedback on the commandline. So I checked engine.log, but there
were only a few entries as per below:

Note that the name I specified does not show up at all.
Anyone have any ideas?

Attaching previously owned storage domain to 4.2 Cluster
by John Nguyen
Hi Guys,
I'm working through a disaster recovery of a failed cluster. And I found
the documentation for attaching the old storage domain as an import domain
to a new Cluster. Both clusters are 4.2.
https://ovirt.org/develop/release-management/features/storage/importstora...
The documentation is referencing 3.5 and I would like to know if its still
applies to the 4.2 release.
When I try to do the import I see warnings below:
I know that its really hard to say this operation may not be destructive.
But is the general work flow outlined in the 3.5 documentation still valid?
Thanks,
John

Simple API call to start VM
by Kirin van der Veer
Hi oVirt users,
I have (what I hope) is a simple problem.
I want to make an https request to start a VM via the oVirt REST API.
Here is the command that I think should work:
curl --user "admin:SECRETPASSWORD" --request POST --header "Content-Type:
application/xml" --header "Accept: application/xml" --data '</action>'
https://ovirtengine.localnet:443/api/vms/69c47a91-bbv1-4eda-b71d-7bddf82e...
However I get a 404 in response (see below):
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN">
<html><head>
<title>404 Not Found</title>
</head><body>
<h1>Not Found</h1>
<p>The requested URL /api/vms/60c47a91-bca1-4eda-b71d-7bddf82ee8ab/start
was not found on this server.</p>
</body></html>
Where have I made a mistake here?
